Or we could just crash-land the entire city in the San Fran bay and leave it floating there indefinitely while the Wraith are still tearing up the galaxy.... *grumbles* I'm still bitter that SGA got canceled in favor of SGU, because it's just not nearly as fun!

And I hope that someday I can still be young at go like Rubye and Eddie.

Watching SGA on the computer, right before the series ended in a two-week stretch eliminates the worries about Sheppard dying- but man, does that boy love suicide missions. Kind of like Janeway in the first few seasons of Voyager- always activating the self-destruct.

That said, I was literally on the edge of my seat at certain points during The Siege. That's never happened before. I love SGA and I miss it- someone above said it best- Where is our movie?!

The cakes were actually pretty nice this time around. I think I would go for a "...thing missing" cake as long as the cake itself wasn't screwed up. It would be amusing. I would demand a discount though.

And on the comment about that episode, the second you said it I knew what you were talking about. One of my all time favorite shows.

Stargate: Atlantis is MADE OF AWESOME. I keep starting over at the beginning and trying to watch straight through, instead of skipping around, only to be horribly traumatized by the Genii. Nobody tortures John but John!

"Why don't you just send Sheppard out on another suicide mission and make me wait six months to see if he lives or not?"Ah Jen, I thought I loved this 'blog before, now I know that was only a shadow of the true love I could have for Cake Wrecks. *sigh*I love you, you great big geek!

I just realized that the first one is the opposite of your book cover cake: in that case the instruction "underneath that" was misinterpreted as something to be written in icing, while in this one the 'after' of "Happily Ever After" was misinterpreted as an instruction as to where to put the names. They're lucky it didn't say "Mike & Louisa To Happily Ever."

Quote: "Why don't you just send Sheppard out on another suicide mission and make me wait six months to see if he lives or not? Huh? How 'bout that, funny boy?*"

-Hahahaha ohmigosh I totally am with you! That made me insane! On the one hand, there's no WAY that he could die, but how are they going to get him out of this one? Tell me NOW NOW NOW! Hee hee hee hee... I love that you're just like me as a sci-fi geek girl, Jen. Wreck on! <3

Jen,It appears from your issues with the names Kaun and Rubye (you say ribeye, I say Rubye, Let's call the whole thing off ...), that you and I share an absolute disdain for the current trend in "unique spellings". I used to type up the birth announcements for the local newspaper and, through the years, this problem grew to astronomical proportions. I think Katelyn/Caitlin/Caytelynne, etc. is the name that started it all. Your follow up to Cake Wrecks should be a web site called Name Wrecks ... and we'll start with Jaxon. (Disclosure: My son's name is Riley but the boy on the next street is named Ryelye - not kidding. I used to pronounce it like Jai-alai)

The Verizon cake was my mom's and was supposed to say...drum roll... "From NJ Bell to Verizon and Beyond" to commemorate the company's name change and celebrate a get together of Verizon employees old and new. Welcome.. AND WHAT!?

Actually, the "accidentally" cake may not even be an accident. It's a relatively well-known internet meme where a person will say the fragment "I accidentally *noun*." Might just have been a cake for someone internet savvy.

Wow! Came here by way of a mention from another SGA fan. How have I overlooked this site so long?!? I know what my sister's getting for her birthday ('cause I love her & she decorates cakes & needs more belly-laughs in her life :-)!

Oh, & thanks to those who commented for educating me about a meme I hadn't run into yet. I would've looked really silly when I went all grammar-Nazi on someone's ass....

... YES!!! I am I am NOT crazily obsessed!!! I saw "Sheppard" and, being the Stargate geek that I am, thought, "Colonel Sheppard!" followed quickly by a feeling of disappointment when I concluded it likely wasn't the one I was thinking of. So I checked the reviews just to be sure. ^^ But it WAS who I was thinking of. And now, I can happily share that I began watching it late in the game. I bought the entire first season on DVD, without ever having seen the show. Just to show you dedication to my fandom. ^^' But I found I preferred it to SG-1. You should have SEEN my frantic scrambling when I reached the end of the season. Within 16 hours I had located the second season online, for free. I just had to navigate the Chinese script to watch it. :P NEVER underestimate the power of globalization and yahoo.

What's a Wreck?

What's a Wreck?

A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.

Where's the book?

We don’t have any copies of Cake Wrecks for sale here, autographed or otherwise. We decided the shipping and handling costs would be too high to make it worth your while. So instead, buy your copies locally or online and then order personalized bookplates: it’s cheaper, easier, and I think even looks a bit nicer.
